Wow ~ a "Three-point-Five" @0:55, a VC 'ville @1:30, and an Ontos @1:57! Wonder where the 'Mules" were during this film? Looks like Pohokaloa Training Area on the Big Island. Old sateens and M-14s, .45s and hard Marines. OooRah! Where have all the good times gone?
I was in Platoon 298 in January of 1964 at MCRD and then shipped to Mike Company 3/4 in Kanehoe, Hawaii with the 1st Marine Brigade and in February of '65 off to Vietnam.

boot camp was tough in 64 and it was also tough in 84.
seems like nothing ever changes, except when these movies were taken, vietnam was on the horizon.
